The 2007 ceremony, taking place at the Panasonic headquarters in Secaucus, NJ marks the 8th consecutive year that EarthCam and Panasonic have joined forces to produce this event live on the Internet.

Each year, the "best of the best" videos are honored at this annual awards ceremony. Videos submitted for the New Vision Awards are reviewed by students from Columbia University's School of the Arts Film Division, and the top three finalists in each category are submitted for a final round of judging by an independent panel of professionals.

Judges include educators, broadcasters, scientists, journalists, entertainers and industry leaders who volunteer their time to Kid Witness News to select the videos for top honors in several different categories. Winners from across the U.S. are then flown to the New York area to participate in a weekend of activities to celebrate their accomplishments and to receive their honors at the prestigious New Vision Awards Ceremony.

Kid Witness News is a hands-on video education program for elementary and middle school students supported by Panasonic.
